DUBUQUE's 1NCENDIARIEs.
Additional Attempts to Start Fires in
the Lumber Yards.

CHICAGO, Nov IA special dispatch
from Dubuque, Iowa, dated Nov. 8, says:
Last night several further attempts were
made to start fires in different parts of the
city, and the anxiety of property holders
naturally increases. Two men attempted
to gain entrance to Knapp, Stout a. Co.'S.
mill office by forcing the windoY latcheS.
As they were about to enter anFofficer in
tercepted them, and chased one, but failed
to capture him. Knapp, Stout q Co., suf-
fered loss of $4,000 by an in
cendiary fire the night previous.
What object the men had in attempting to
gain an entrance to the office is not known.
In the main yard of the company two
places were found where light kindliug
saturated with benzine had been placed un-
der piles of seasoned lumber. In Robin
sons lumber yard, located in the southern
part of the city, similar arrangements had
been made The plan was undoubtedly
to fire all the lumber yards
at once and thus destroy the business and
manufacturing portion of the city. Extra
patrolmen were put on guard to-day, and
many citizens will watch tonight. Lum-
bermen are greatly alarmed Their insur-
ance is likely to be cancelled at any mo-
ment. One firm is said to have closed down
until the danger is over"

room of the Daily Commercial, and the

The Western Union Telegraph Company's
office occupied the first story of the build
ing and was completely saturated with
water but not seriously damaged. The

fence. A printer named j, M. Haines, of
Virginia, was asleep in the newspaper Of

tion has caused sensation.
DIR. Mackenzie says the general health of
the Crown Prince is excellent He takes a
great deal of exercise in the open air, and
sleeps and eats well, but the local complaint
within the last few days has assumed an
unfavorabie character.
To-day's article in the journal de 81

condition of che Crown Prince, had a de-
pressing effect upon the Bourse. Russian

mann to arrange for a conference of physi-
clans, which was held this forenoon, the

Schmit, the specialist, who is to decide
whether an operation is necessary or not.
1t is reported that the fresh growth n.the
Crown Princes throat is tumor, and that
the Princes voice is again hoarse.
A later dispatch from San Reno SAYS:
"Dr. Mackenzie found totally new growth
half an inch below the ligaments of
the glottis. There is no immediate
danger" The doctor thinks the growth is
too low to be operated upon through the
mouth, and that an incision will have to be
made into the throat.
The news of the Crown Princes condition
caused great sensation Berlin ndVienna.

the couple. Some weeks ago the daugh-
ter returned home from college Last night
she was on the street with Kahn in company
with other young friends. When near the
Knight residence the irate father appeared
with a revolver and opened brisk fire,
Kahn retreating. This morning at O'Clock
Mr.. Knight appeared at the door of the
store where Kahn is engaged as a salesman
and seeing him within opened fire on him.
The fire was returned, each party emptying
his revolver. The shots few wild, scatter

that the labor troubles in the Tecbe district

VIRGINIA'S ELECTION,

ton or Carrying the State.
RICHMOND, VA, Nov. THE very ex-
citing political contest which has been GO
ing on in Virginia for the past few months
will be closed tomorrow, The campaign
has been most active on the part of both
opposing parties. The real contest is for 100
members of the House of Delegates and 10
State Senators. On the result will de-
pend whether Democratic domination in
the State shall be maintained or
whether the combination of the reformers
and Republicans shall come into power.
The incoming Legislature will also elect
United States Senator to succeed Senator
Riddleberger. OF twenty-one State Sena-
tors who hold over seventeen are Demo
Gratis and four Republicans. The last House
of Delegates was over two-thirds Demo-
cratic. For the Coalitionists to capture the
Legislature by securing majority,
there will have to be revo-
luton throughout the State. This
the Democrats claim will not occur,
and they express confidence that they will
have good working majority in both
houses. The Coalitionists, under the leader
ship of ex-senator Malone, have worked
as never before, and they speak hopefully
as to the result of to-morrows vote In
this city the contest has been particularly
active. The Coalitionists are now claiming
that they will elect the four city Represen-
tativeS, despite the 1900 majority which
Democrats had in the last general election.
The Democrats claim that they will carry
the city by from 700 to / 900 majority.

4 New Dodge or rrnnps

Washington Star: There is o new
dodge by whioh tramps hope to get a
living without work and yet escape the
penalties OF yaRrancy. a "tongh" OF
the worst character quits his home
and wanders to q distant city where the
labor is strong. Here he applies
for admission to one OF the local trades
nnlohs--say. the painters, for example.
When the committee on admission look
up his antecedenfs, they report against
him as q matter OF course, and the So
ciety rejects him accordingly. Then
he goes 10 some OF tile panicky capital
lists who disapprove Of trade. unions on
principle, and represents hineesf
as o victim OF the tyranny
of unionism. The unions will
let no one work who does not belong to
them, he argues. and when he applies
Tor admission they won't let him ia.
The antitnnionlsts raise o small sunG
for him ont Of syrnpathy, and give him
q letter commencing him to the charity
of other persons who condemn persecu-
tion, and whom our tramp has milked
the town as dry as he dares to-, he passes
on to q place where he is still unknown
and repeats his little trick. Is would
be- jass as VOL for benevolent people
with long purses to scrntinizs the APP
pea.s Of the victims OF union tyranny as
carefully as those Of other sufferers from
the imperfections OF our social System.
